#minibooks
Also some of the miniatures I’m working on - they still need to have their covers tooled and finished. Sheep & kidskin (from a fair-trade witch market, do you know how much they want for a kid no one will ask for nowadays? It’s a nightmare!) paper dyed & sewn by hand, cotton endbands by myself.
Also featuring wooden barrels I finished last autumn! I keep spare acorns there :D
